Export KML file from Phocamaps to share with others

Post by Artanis »

Hello!

Some time ago I installed Phocamaps in my Joomla 2.5 site, and added about 50 markers with HTML descriptions and custom icons. Once in few months I update some of those markers via Phocamaps backend - so far so good.

Recently few clients showed up who would like to embed Google maps with our kiosk locations in their sites as well. There is no way for me to share map that I've created via Phocamaps, so what I'd like to do now is somehow export existing markers as KML file, import them in Google Maps, and afterwards simply upload KML file back to my Phocamaps.

So what I expect is to manage markers in Google Maps, and once in few months when there are some changes in location, I'll simply download KML file from Goole Maps, and upload it to my site via Phocamaps backend.

Will it work, and if yes, could you please suggest how can I download Phocamaps markers as KML file?

Best regards in advance.

Hi, in Phoca Maps, you can display the KML files but there is not export function for this. So only completed KML files can be used there.
